Public and Lane Swim Admission Policy
-
Public swim times are not refundable or transferable.
Swim times will proceed through rain or cooler temperatures, but not through mechanical failures🔧or unsafe weather (lightning⚡️ hail🌨 heavy smoke 💨) as deemed by the lifeguarding team.
If facility staff cancels a swim time (due to unsafe weather or mechanical failure) before the designated start time, patrons will not be allowed to enter the facility. A credit will be issued by the pool to the swimmer. Credits are good until the end of the current season.
If patrons have started their designated swim time but must evacuate the pool due to unsafe weather, no refunds or credits will be issued.
The pool may remain closed until weather conditions improve. -
Anyone who enters the fenced area of the pool during Public or Lane swim must pay the admission fee for their age category. (includes GST)
Each person regardless of swimming or spectating/not swimming counts towards the total pool capacity & Lifeguard to patron ratio.
